Pediheart Podcast #139: A Novel Bioresorbable Scaffold For Possible Pediatric Use

This week we delve into the world of interventional cardiology and speak with Professor Damien Kenny of Children's Hospital, Ireland in Dublin, Ireland about a recent work he co-authored on pre-clinical animal experiments on the use of a novel bioresorbable scaffold/stent. How easy were these to implant? How did these compare with bare metal stents for patency, thrombus or inflammation in the vascular wall? Dr. Kenny shares his insights all the way from Dublin this week!<br />doi: 10.1002/ccd.28893
